Callum Jamieson is shaping up to be this year’s WA draft bolter.

The 200cm ruck-forward from Claremont has rocketed up the draft calculations on the back of a breakout year at WAFL colts and national under-18s levels.

The majority of the ruck talk out west is about former basketballer and under-18 All-Australian Luke Jackson, but at least one interstate AFL recruiter believes Jamieson could also squeeze into the national draft’s top 30.

The 19-year-old got the Tigers over the line in last Sunday’s five-point qualifying final win over West Perth in Joondalup, amassing a career-high 28 disposals, 15 hit-outs, six marks and six tackles in the wet.

WAFL state talent manager Adam Jones said "We didn't get to showcase him in the ruck as much as we would've liked (in the championsips) because of Luke's dominance, but he's really showing what he's capable of in the Colts."
